This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
Literal New Year’s Eve Party Promotion of the Day: Well, if everyone’s going…
I love the internet. Who thinks to do this?
Rock’Em Sock’em Hilarity of the Day: Canadian ice hockey commentator Don Cherry had a set of invisible piano keys installed in his desk.
Needless to say, the result is somewhat distracting.

Don’t mess with frogs.
Amphibious Ant Crusher of the Day: Turns out African Bullfrogs don’t take as kindly as bearded dragons to being teased with fake ants on a smartphone screen.

SERIOUSLY? BLUE VALENTINE?
ARE YOU FUCKING WITH ME?
LOOK, WE ALL LOVE RYAN GOSLING, AND I WOULD WIFE MICHELLE WILLIAMS SO HARD SHE WOULD RETROACTIVELY GET PREGNANT AND GIVE BIRTH LIKE, TEN MINUTES LATER, BUT YOU CRIED DURING THE ROCK OF LOVE BUS FINALE. YOU CRY AT FOLGER’S COMMERCIALS. THERE IS NO WAY WE’RE WATCHING THAT FILM.

Cutest Call To Action Ever of the Day: On October 5, the container ship MV Rena ran aground on Astrolabe Reef, resulting in an oil spill that is already being regarded as the worst environmental disaster in New Zealand’s history.
Clean up efforts are underway, but the danger to local wildlife remains high. A raft of Little Blue Penguins has already been negatively impacted by the spill.
The Kiwi yarn store Skeinz has put out a call for penguin sweaters — an adorable-sounding but very necessary accessory that helps keep the birds from preening their feathers and ingesting the oil.
Skeinz has posted knitting instructions for anyone willing to lend a hand.
